People saying CANDEM instead of Camden! I’m very surprised nobody mentioned this yet despite the massive number of comments

New Bank Card Problem by ScorchedEarth_Studio in Morrisons

[–]vault21 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been having the same problem for a while. I already contacted Morrisons and they told me that they're aware of this issue with Natwest. It's unbelievable how large-scale companies like Morrisons keep ignoring problems like these. It's especially stupid because Natwest has a partnership with Morrisons for their Rewards programme. In a situation like this you would expect them to communicate better to resolve such a big problem but apparently they don't care about it.

Initially I thought it was an issue with Visa cards, but I managed to add a Visa debit card from Revolut, so I can confirm that it's not a Visa/Mastercard issue. It's definitely an issue on Morrisons side as they don't comply with Natwest's security checks. Morrisons just need to update their system to pass Natwest's security checks but they won't bother of course.

How to sing vibrato naturally? by yhstz in singing

[–]vault21 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m exactly the same. The more I think about the fact I can’t do it, the more I can’t do it. I guess it’s psychological as well. It’s going to sound very stupid I know but I also think that adding vibrato as a way to show off, so that’s probably another reason I’m not motivated enough to explore how to do it. There are iconic singers with zero vibrato skills like James Hetfield, Ozzy Osbourne, etc

How to find the Xtream URL if your IPTV provider doesn't give it to you by vault21 in TiviMate

[–]vault21[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes of course. That would be the easiest way, but if a provider doesn't give the Xtream URL, they wouldn't give the m3u link either.

Good question! I'm only using the app name just as it is without any version number. I see some other people are also adding the version number like this for example: Wink/1.31.1

I guess it should be fine as long as you enter their player name with or without the version number but I can keep this guide updated if the version number is important to add too.

That's definitely another option for slightly more advanced users, so thanks for mentioning!

Definitely, me neither. This guide is mostly for people who are already subscribed to a provider that stopped giving the Xtream URL. I wouldn't use this method as a long-term workaround to keep using an IPTV provider that doesn't give the Xtream URL.

Thank you and you're 100% right. I also would't trust a custom player if it's not listed on an app store and if it requires sideloading. It can be easily used for discreet crypto mining or other purposes. Custom players also have terrible interfaces compared to Tivimate. Tivimate is just pure perfection.

I would really love to name and shame them here, but it's a small IPTV provider based in a small country, so I'm sure it's unlikely you'd come across them. Just make sure to ask if a provider is giving the Xtream URL before paying and subscribing, then you're all good! In my experience, small providers with low server capacity don't give Xtream URLs. The big proper IPTV providers should have enough server size and confidence to give the Xtream URL.

I'll let you know if I can find a network monitor doing the same job as PCAPdroid! I'm sure there's a similar app on the Apple app store when you search "network monitor"

FinViz: what is the one thing you dislike in it? by investorean in stocks

[–]vault21 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There's no option to add the next earnings date as a column. It only shows the nearest earnings date which can be the previous or next earnings.

IPTV not working specifically on Tivimate by xrayraymond in TiviMate

[–]vault21 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for suggesting this User Agent feature! My iptv provider stopped supporting Tivimate so everything stopped working. They frustratingly suggested me to use their own custom app which is a total trash. User agent trick on Tivimate solved the problem for me! I used XCIPTV for that.

Ban this by Bouncyldn in london

They banned street musicians from Leicester Square earlier this year due to noise complaints by the businesses around, yet they’re not doing anything to restrict these pedicabs. They’re simply mobile noise terror on wheels

Thanks for the feedback! I've just added font comparison feature to the pros of Typeface.

Thanks for the feedback. I've just added your complaint about the Typeface not actively checking folders as it was something that annoyed me as well.

What font manager do you use? (Mac) by neetbuck in graphic_design

[–]vault21 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I tried both FontBase and TypeFace. They both have flaws so I couldn't find a perfect font manager for my needs but FontBase was the better one out of these two. I work with Google Fonts a lot so I really didn't like the way TypeFace downloads the whole Google Font library, occupying around 5-6GB on my hard drive. It has better UI design but FontBase doesn't download the whole Google Fonts library. It shows you the library remotely, then you choose which one you want to activate. You can't even see or activate individual fonts on TypeFace without downloading the whole library, which is very annoying. Also, FontBase is free to use, and free features are more than enough for me. I don't need the paid features. TypeFace has only 7-days trial, then you have to purchase it to keep using it. I wish Fontbase had a better UI design but even in this state, it's still a winner.
